Product Success Lead
Product Success Lead Location: London, 83 Victoria Street (4 days a week in the office, 1 day from home), plus agents' offices for go-lives | Full-time, permanent | Competitive salary and equity | Reports to: a co-founder About LightWork AI LightWork AI builds Felicity, the AI front desk for UK letting and estate agents. She answers every call, email and message 24/7, qualifies leads and takes viewing requests, triages maintenance, and handles around 90% of that work on her own. We are live and generating revenue with agencies across the UK. Roughly half of those enquiries arrive out of hours, when the branch is shut and the lead goes to whoever answers first. Felicity answers in under 20 seconds. The Role We are hiring one technically trained owner for every customer after the sale. You get each agency live, prove Felicity's value in the agency's own numbers, and turn what customers run into into fixes that product and engineering can ship. Most of the risk with our customers is technical: an agency that isn't fully connected, or a Felicity that has handled nothing in 14 days, needs someone who can open the logs and fix the cause, not just report it. A trial that ends without the agency paying is a lost customer. You start as an individual contributor with no direct reports and a weekly one-to-one with your co-founder manager. Sales (one lead for independent agencies, one for groups) closes the deal and owns pricing. You take it from signed agreement to first live enquiry, then keep the account. You are organised, calm with a frustrated agency owner, clear with people who aren't technical, and you ask for feedback and use it. What Good Looks Like • Month 1: you know every live account, how each one is connected and how Felicity is performing for it, and you have taken a newly signed agency towards go-live from a written handover. • Month 3: the per-branch report and at-risk alert you built in your first 60 days are trusted at the weekly review, and no trial starts without the success criteria, go-live date and price you signed off. • Month 6: branch retention and trial to paid are rising, time to go-live is falling, and anything fixed twice has become a template, a tool or a product change. Key Responsibilities When these compete for your week, this is the order. Accounts at Risk • Score every account's health every week from Felicity's own data: enquiries handled, viewing requests passed to the branch, staff picking up her handoffs, and errors. • Call at-risk accounts the same week. • Give every lost account a reason backed by the record, not a guess. Go-Live • Own each agency from signed agreement to Felicity's first live enquiry. • Join the last sales call and get a written handover: how each branch handles enquiries today, why they bought, and what was promised. LightWork AI | Product Success Lead | 1 of 3 • Connect the channels and property software (such as Alto, Street, MRI and Loop), set Felicity up the way each branch already works, and train staff on her handoffs. Trial Entry • No trial starts until the agency has agreed in writing what "working" means, the go-live date and the price afterwards. You sign that off. • Flag a poor technical fit before a deal closes. Proof of Value • Build the evidence behind each account's reviews in the agency's own numbers: enquiries caught out of hours, viewing requests from them, response times, and what that is worth in fees. • Draw every number from the logs, with each one defined. The Fix, Not Just the Ticket • Change configuration yourself, within what Felicity supports, and never write custom code into a customer's account. • Send bugs to engineering with the affected customers attached. • Rank the jobs Felicity can't yet finish by how many customers need each one, and review that list with product and engineering monthly. • Make go-lives cheaper: anything fixed twice becomes a template, a tool or a product change. Groups and Growth • Roll groups out a trial branch first, with a named champion who trains the next wave's champions; each wave starts when the last meets the agreed criteria. • Spot growth inside accounts (more branches, more channels, usage near the plan's allowance) and pass it to sales or customer success within a week. You don't set prices. • Work with the customer success team so every account has one named owner. How You're Measured Four numbers at the weekly company review, independents and groups shown separately. In your first 60 days you turn our per-branch data into a report and an alert you trust. • Branch retention (up): the share of branches paying at the start of the month that are still paying at the end. • Trial to paid (up): the share of trials ended that month that converted to a paid invoice within the trial window. • Live in 14 days (up): the share of live branches where Felicity has handled an enquiry in the last 14 days. • Time to go-live (down): median days from signed agreement to Felicity's first live enquiry. Requirements Must Have • You've shipped technical work that paying customers rely on: integrations, configuration, scripts, or AI and automation workflows. You can walk us through one, including what broke. • You've owned a customer number, such as retention, conversion or adoption. You can say where it started, what you changed, and where it ended. Also Great • Three or more years in forward-deployed, solutions or implementation engineering, technical account management or technical customer success. • A technical degree. Shipped work counts equally. LightWork AI | Product Success Lead | 2 of 3 • You already know property or property software. If you know AI but not lettings, we teach you: two weeks inside live branches with the customer success team, then go-lives alongside them before you lead one. Why Join LightWork AI • Join a small, AI-first team with a product UK agencies already use and pay for. • Own every customer after the sale, measured on four numbers that show the difference you make. • The templates and tools you build become product. • Work closely with the founders, with a weekly one-to-one with your co-founder manager. • Competitive salary plus equity; any variable pay is tied only to the four measures. • Hybrid working: 4 days a week with the team in our London office, 1 day working from home, plus agents' offices for go-lives.

Since then, we’ve made more than 30 successful placements across Tech Architecture, Software Engineering, SQL, PowerApps, QA, Actuarial, Underwriting, Risk, Compliance, FP&A, and Credit Control.

One of the toughest challenges was the requirement for all roles to be based onsite in Dublin, five days a week. By working closely with Onda’s onsite MSP, we streamlined the process, built trust with candidates, and ensured the right skills were secured despite the market constraints.

CV to Interview Ratio

Founded in 2022, Onda is committed to providing customers with simpler and more effective cyber insurance coverage in the face of increasingly sophisticated threats.

Having previously worked with Trust in SODA’s consultants at a previous organisation, Onda’s hiring manager was confident in the value we could bring and chose to engage us for a new mandate.

Onda set an exceptionally high bar for candidate quality and needed a partner who could deliver critical hires in a tight timeframe, all while competing with other projects in the market.

We partnered with Onda on an exclusive basis, enabling us to carry out a thorough search across our community networks and the broader market.

With regular catchups alongside the TA team, we quickly aligned on the role requirements, including candidate profiles and culture fit.

By leaning on a deep understanding of Onda’s business imperatives, we successfully secured the two critical hires under demanding market conditions.

QUANTSPARK

QuantSpark are a strategic analytics and AI consultancy that supercharges its clients’ operating models with advanced technology and bespoke, data-driven products.

After being recommended to QuantSpark by a previous customer, Trust in SODA was engaged alongside competing agencies to deliver a critical leadership role; however, due to SODA’s fast provision of high-quality profiles, the team was soon retained exclusively.

QuantSpark were looking for a blend of deep technical expertise and management experience, and they were operating inside strict budget parameters.

SODA conducted cultural interviews, competitor analysis, market mapping, and technical testing to ensure the right fit for the role, ultimately filling the position on time and in budget.

SODA provided constant communication and flexibility. Our business has a number of nuances that make recruitment challenging, and the SODA team constantly worked with us to ensure they were providing the best possible service. Not only from a client POV but based on candidate feedback, it was clear that SODA provides a thoughtful candidate experience. The team was flexible on fees and is looking for a long-term relationship. Our business does not typically work with agencies, and I'd be keen to partner with them again on an as-needed basis.
